Nutella Truffles



With Halloween right around the corner I know I am going to be tempted with lots of candy - so I figured I had better come up with some skinny, gluten-free and dairy free candy alternatives
These truffles are kind of like Ferrero Rocher candies with the Rice Krispies on the outside - the Rice Krispies do lose thier crispy-ness after a few hours so if you want to make them without the Rice Krispies you could roll them in cocoa powder instead and then they sort of taste like the fancy chocolate truffles from Trader Joes :)
These are gluten free, dairy free, and vegan!


Recipe:
2 tablespoons Original PB2 - 45 calories
2 tablespoons Chocolate PB2 - 45 calories
2 tablespoons Cocoa Powder - 40 calories
1 tablespoon Unsweetened Almond Milk - 2.5 calories
2 tablespoons Water - 0
1/4 cup Rice Krispies - 27.5 calories                               
= 160 total, makes 12 truffles, about 13 calories per truffle


1. Mix together the PB2 and cocoa powder
2. Add the liquids and stir until smooth
3. Take teaspoons sized amounts and roll into a ball with your palms
4. Roll the ball in Rice Krispies or cocoa powder - store in an airtight container
